    This is from a really terrible source - the person who answered Best Buy's telephone.....I asked if they carry Lenovo keyboards (the bestbuyforbusiness.com says they do) and the person said, "no we don't carry any Lenovo in the store anymore because Lenovo bought them and they are changing everything so we don't stock it until the changes are done."

    Any possiblity that they'd change our beloved Thinkpads?!?!?!?!?! Say it ain't so! ?

    I wouldn't worry too much about it. There's no reason to mess with one of the most popular attributes of the Thinkpad line.

    Nothing is going to change or has changed. I wouldn't trust Best Buy people's advice. lol They are just 18 year old kids who make up anything. :p

    There will be new models released around June. But I highly doubt they'll change the keyboard much. Heck, they might even use the same keyboard from the T61
